Tim is a great presenter, sit back end enjoy.

Usually when we talk about Games based learning we expect that children will be the consumers of the game, not the creators. With more creativity coming into the new primary curriculum it will be interesting to see how classrooms:

1. Become creative
2. Decide on a target audience for their creations
3. Publish their creativity
4. Get assessed on their creative outpu

I hope that within the next 5 years pupils will be making their own games of a high enough quality and engagement for us to share on Primary Games Arena
